One day, with Christmas near, a message and a fir tree sent by Itsuka's mother arrive. Remembering back to the broken promises from when she was little, Itsuka is afraid to make another promise with her mother. But Nagomu's words give her a push, and she tells her mother that she'll be waiting.
Yuzu yokan causes Nagomu to remember a conversation he had with his grandfather.
And you came home from
 the hospital one week later,
،وعدتَ إلى المنزل من المشفى بعد أسبوع
Und als du nach einer Woche
aus dem Krankenhaus zu uns kamst,
Y una semana después,
llegaste a casa del hospital,
Y una semana después,
llegaste a casa del hospital,
Tu es arrivé à la maison
une semaine plus tard,
E comunque, sei arrivato dall'ospedale 
una settimana dopo,
E uma semana depois
que você saiu do hospital
К тому же из роддома
вы вернулись спустя неделю,
